Rabbits on a pasture - what good it is

At the beginning of the last century, publications were published, which talked about keeping rabbits in the aviary. The authors noted that this method is advantageous, more natural, has many advantages. Released animals are changing eyes. Disappearance and apathy disappear in some, nervousness and resentment in others. High jumps, zigzags and jogging…

Only then do you notice that the real rabbit is a smart and intelligent creature, perfectly adapted to life at large: sensitive ears, elastic paws, precise movements, instant reaction, orientation is unmistakable. But cell-free retention, despite its benefits, has not spread. The reason for this was the illiterate use of this method in rabbit breeding. The rabbits were released where they lacked forage, left without security and veterinary supervision, without feeding, without shelter, etc. The offspring perished in the burrows that were flooded with water, destroyed by predators. Although in the past century in some farms used aviaries and walking for rabbits, but gradually in the manuals about this method of their maintenance mentioned less often and finally completely forgotten. And the method is interesting. So let's take a closer look at it.

What rabbits are popular in the UK

I wanted to ask his readers living in the UK. What breed rabbits are popular in your country? Sometimes I have a desire to engage in a massive breeding rabbits. At the moment I have 20 rabbits. Most of them breed Californian rabbit. And i have a Gray Gigant rabbit and Red-haired New Zealand rabbit.

I thought that in the UK rabbits are expensive. In my country they are cheap. I could sell rabbits west Europe. Although probably a lot of permits and documents required to issue. To begin, I want to know which breeds of rabbits are popular in your country (especially in the UK). I am glad for any help!

Amazing facts about rabbits

          Bunnies are a very interesting and amazing type of animal. They are largely underestimated and seen as prey animal and known by kids as "the Easter bunny" that is eaten in a chocolate form on Easter day.  If we notice bunnies are a widely used symbol and do take part in this world. Here are a few facts you may have not known about rabbits. 

   1. Bunnies have an amazing sense of smell, sight and senses, they can almost see a full 360 degrees which allows then to see whenever predators are around.They can see fully behind them and even detect if an animal is camouflaged! Since their eyes are on the side of their head it blacks a small part in front of their nose called a "blind spot." Their whiskers in a way make up for it but they cant smell or see with them just sense where a wall is or when they feel a presence in front of them. Baby bunnies have yet to develop using their whiskers which is why they may run into walls or fall.

2.  Bunnies have big hind feet, they are very powerful and is powerful to the point it can break their own backs from struggling. They can jump up to one meter vertically and 3 meters horizontally.

3. Bunnies love to dig it is in every bunny instinct. They are very territorial and each have their own homes but when you think about it do bunnies make one entrance and one exit? No bunnies memorize many holes they have dug for their home they can have up to 5 entrances and exits knowing which ones are theirs. 

4.  Bunnies have many emotions and many ways to tell us their emotions. Sometimes bunnies will jump and twist its body in the air making it look as if they are going crazy or have pain but its a sign of joy.

5.  Bunnies make noise. Lots of people tend to think bunnies are quiet little animals but they make noise with toys and such but also physically. They can scream when in pain and when being affectionate with humans and or other bunnies they make a low humming noise it can mean a variety of things but it depends on the setting and atmosphere to know what it means. 

6.  Rabbits do a thing called "periscoping" meaning they will stand on their hind legs making them stand as if a human also giving them height to look around and see on a higher level. They are very curious and love to get into things they are not supposed to. 

7. Bunnies get angry. They can be quiet mean (as my bunny has been) They have weird ways of showing anger such as their third eyelid showing, it can also mean stress,confusion,anger or on high alert. They will also make a loud stomping noise with their hind feet when sensing danger, not knowing what a noise is and frustration. 

8. Bunnies are very popular to have as a pet.  For the last 60 year and counting rabbits have been the most household pet in UK and and varying countries.  In the UK in the past 10 years bunnies have been the third most popular pet. In the year 2010 over 1 million rabbits were kept as pets. Although many were kept temporarily not knowing bunnies were so much work some were given away. Did you know bunny owners (doing proper care) will have  spent of over 3,000 dollars per bunny over the course of its lifetime?

9. Bunnies are no easy task. Rabbits are thought of as cute little quiet animals that will cuddle and make great for selfies. they are opposite in fact. Bunnies are loud at night sometimes causing you to loose a bit of sleep, they do not cuddle as often as people think (depending on how you raise your bunny and how much time you spend with it)  They do not sit still for selfies and they are not easy to care for. Just the cleaning process of their habitat can total around 30 minutes.

10.  Bunnies symbols mean fertility and rebirth hence why it is used for spring and Easter.  

11. Rabbits can grow to be large. some bunnies are dwarfs and some are large there currently a rabbit holding the world record of 4 and a half feet long and weighing 49 pounds. The smallest bunny is
only the size of a hand.

12. Although rabbits cost so much and are a hassle to care for they are very clean animals they clean themselves so bathing them is not necessary. It is good to give them a bath maybe once every 4 or so months just to be sure and daily checks for fur health and ears. They can be trained just like dogs to stay and to even be litter trained! It takes time but they can be trained and taught where to go to the bathroom.

13. Bunnies are herbivores eating only vegetables and plants. Since their diet passes so much cellulose they pass two types of stool. One isa hard pellet and the other is a pellet but unfirm and looks more runny. As for cows and other animals burping their food bunnies will re-ingest their feces one the first pass to get the nutrients their body did not take the first time 

14. A bunnies teeth NEVER stop growing! Every single day they grow not a dramatic growth but they grow. If a bunny does not graze or chew things such as cardboard or wood their teeth will grow entirely to long to the point of pain and even death since it hurts to bad to eat.

15. Bunnies can not vomit so if fed something dangerous the poison sits in their body killing or harming them.

16.  Hares are born with their eyes open and a body full of fur, they are able to run within the first few minutes of being born! As for rabbits they are born blind, naked and must spend their first full day in their nest.

17. They word bunny and rabbit mean the exact same thing its just the word we prefer to call them.

18. Bunnies will only lay in an environment that they are trusting of and are comfortable with their owner/caretaker. If they lay in a balled position they do not trust the moment or person, if they lay with their feet stick out and on their back they are fully trusting in the person and environment and feel safe, That's a big compliment from a rabbit.

19.  The worlds oldest rabbit lived to be 16 years old.

20. Bunnies feel emotion, they get lonely and they get sad, angry, frustrated,confused and even excited. Bunnies will lay in one position for a long period of time when the are sad and will jolt up when hearing their owner  and periscoping to show their happiness. They get depressed and sad when their is not interaction between them another bunny or another human. I is important to consider a bunnies feelings when owning one we may not see or hear it but their are many signs that show.

Overall bunnies are awesome animals they will surely lighten your day and they are worth it in the end. I hope these facts have helped some of you who have been considering a rabbit or who were just interested in knowing about bunnies.
